About Little Plum Children's Boutique
Four real seasons in the Okanagan mean a child's wardrobe turns over on its own schedule, whether or not anyone budgeted for it. A snowsuit that fit last November will not fit the next one, and the same goes for boots, rain gear and the sun hats worn from May through September. Little Plum Children's Boutique is at 2913 30 Ave, on the main downtown shopping street in Vernon.
Independent children's shops work differently from a big box floor. Ranges are chosen rather than allocated, sizes tend to run from newborn through the younger school years, and the stock usually reaches past clothing into the things people buy as gifts, such as blankets, soft toys, books and the small practical items that come up at a baby shower. A shop this size can normally talk sizing through with you, which matters because children's sizing is inconsistent between labels, and a boutique will often help with a gift that suits an age rather than a number printed on a tag.
Downtown Vernon rewards this kind of errand because it is compact. Thirtieth Avenue is a walkable stretch of storefronts with Polson Park at its edge, so a shopping trip can take in a coffee and a gift without moving the car. If you are buying for a new baby, it helps to work out what season the child will be that size, since a summer newborn and a January newborn need entirely different things here. And if you want something specific held or wrapped, phoning ahead is the simplest way to arrange it.
